Embrace the Cross

EMBRACE THE CROSS,
EMBRACE THE CROSS MY BELOVED,
FOR THROUGH IT ALL YOU'LL BRING FORTH THE WINE,
IN THE DAYS AHEAD THROUGH THE TROUBLED TIMES.

EMBRACE THE CROSS,
EMBRACE THE CROSS MY BELOVED,
FOR MY PLAN AND PURPOSE TO BE FULFILLED,
TO REDEEM ALL MAN IS MY PERFECT WILL.

EMBRACE THE CROSS,
EMBRACE THE CROSS MY BELOVED,
TO BECOME THE BREAD AND THE WINE,
FOR FOOD AND DRINK TO ALL MANKIND.

EMBRACE THE CROSS,
EMBRACE THE CROSS MY BELOVED,
EMBRACE THE LONELINESS, EMBRACE DRY TIMES,
EMBRACING ALL THINGS BRINGS FORTH THE BREAD AND THE WINE.

EMBRACE THE CROSS THROUGH SICKNESS AND DISEASE,
ACCORDING TO MY WILL IT WILL SURELY BE,
PLEASING TO ME FOR THE ETERNAL PLAN,
ONLY IN ME YOU UNDERSTAND.

EMBRACE THE CROSS,THROUGH EVERYTHING,
THANKING ME SO FOR ALL I BRING,
THAT MELTS AND MOLDS YOUR SOUL INTO MINE.

EMBRACE THE CROSS MY BELOVED,
FOR YOU ARE MINE.
